Thinking about a stroker short block, going rate for a block?

Wow! Always cool seeing 409 High Performance setups! I have Ross pistons currently.

I can remember when we received them my dad picking one up and saying "gawd dang those are heavy." I'm assuming he was comparing to his race motor stuff.

I wouldn't use Ti pins. They are very unforgiving since they flex more and Ti doesn't like to rub against anything. Something like tool steel is a much better option.
